Interested in Program Director positions @genome_gov? We have an exciting opportunity for a Program in Genome Science. Application period is September 21-30. genome.gov/careers-training/…
We queried public @ENCODE_NIH epigenomic datasets for different statistical metrics relating to race/ethnicity/country of origin, finding only 42.7% of experiments reporting any race or ethnicity information. The way forward here: SNP-based ancestry imputation across all samples
Our understanding of disease variants in minorities is hampered by the fact that many epigenomic datasets are not available for certain populations. How to tackle this problem? Find out about our work with @NoraFranceschi2 just out @NatureGenet!
